§ 102-389. Responsibility of offerors.  


Latest version.
  • (a)

    Determination of responsibility. Responsibility of the offeror under this article shall be ascertained for each county solicitation based upon full disclosure to the purchasing agent at the time of the submission of a bid or proposal in accordance with the terms of the solicitation and this Code, unless the terms of such solicitation allow subsequent submittals by an offeror.

    (b)

    Determination of nonresponsibility. If an offeror who otherwise would have been awarded a contract is found nonresponsible, a written determination of non-responsibility setting forth the basis of the finding shall be prepared by the purchasing agent. The unreasonable failure of an offeror to supply information in connection with an inquiry with respect to responsibility may be grounds for a determination of nonresponsibility. A copy of the determination shall be sent to the nonresponsible offeror and shall inform the offeror of the right to protest under section 102-445.
